> Listen — people be askin' me all the time, "Yo Mos, what's gettin' ready to happen with hip-hop?" (Where do you think hip-hop is goin'?) I tell em, "You know what's gonna happen with hip-hop? Whatever's happening with us." If we smoked out, hip-hop is gonna be smoked out. If we doin' alright, hip-hop is gonna be doin' alright. People talk about hip-hop like it's some giant livin' in the hillside, comin' down to visit the townspeople. We are hip-hop. Me, you, everybody, we are hip-hop.

— Mos Def on Fear Not of Man

The brain on psychedelics is a bit like that.
